Fuel Cell Controller

with TVS Motor Company

Developed and implemented algorithms over power converter circuits for sharing load between a battery pack and the fuel cell stack to operate the stack of high temperature PEM fuel cells at optimum efficiency for avoiding cell membrane damage and for higher cycle life. Additionally, coordinated with consultants for the stack development and prototyped the controller based on the final stack configuration and characteristics. Internally managed the project timelines to be able to match the overall time targets.
